THE Laconias (six of them formerly mem
bers of the Montpelers) played two exhib-
ton games of baseball with the Bostons
last week. In noticing the second game,
played at Concord, the Monitor says: "The
Laconias showed up we'll, and in some re-
spects brilliantly. Fowler, the colored
second baseman, made several remarkable
plays and filed that position as we'll as it
ever was cared for on the grounds. He was
sure on put-outs when attempts were made
to steal second, and made stops of ground
ers that were seemingly impossible 1t is
said he was highly complimented by the
Boston players, both for his work here and
N hp pran at I.apOnin A11riph "A
loney of this city played their positions
well, stop and throw by the former con-
stituting one of the prettiest plays of the
game. In Walker and Jones the Laconias
have an excellent battery"
